In my limited testing, 25 seconds is just too long. I don't want to use call screening. I just want the calls to ring through to my home, my cell phone, and my office phone. My answering machine, cell phone voice mail, and office voice mail all pick-up before Google voice mail.
The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen of 1789 brought together two streams of thought: one springing from the Anglo-American tradition of legal and constitutional guarantees of individual liberties, the other from the Enlightenment's belief that reason should guide all human affairs.
The Constitution and Slavery. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. Thomas Jefferson presented the Declaration of Independence to the Continental Congress in 1776. When the American colonies broke from England, the Continental Congress asked Thomas Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence. In the declaration, Jefferson expressed American grievances and explained why the colonists were breaking away.
